DOWN GO SUIT PRICES /!

The MISFIT CLOTHING PAR
LORS never carry stocks from one
season to another. To keep con-
tracts we have had to buy largely Of
Suits. 1t hasn't been a particularly
brisk season for we retail clothiers,
and as we want to get rid of all our
Suits before the 6rst of spring, prices
have to drop. This makes bonanza
for buyers, and as it is cheaper to buy
fine custom made clothing at prices
much less than ordinary factory
work retails for, we expect to be ex-
ceedingly busy.
If you want to make money by
saving il; if you want clothing, and

Truthful Statement.
To the Editors Of the Appsal

To the Editors OF the Appeal:
Two i'll advised aud incorrect arti-
cles in your recent issues must serve
as an apology for this one, especially
as the whole linus of the one in yes
terday's (the 6th) issue Is calculated to
effect Injustice and to mislead. In
speaking Of amounts paid the venera-
BILE Rev. DR.. White by Calvary
Church, the article states that DR..
White IL allowed only 1900 per an
mum, only s400 OF which was paid last
year. Every intelligent churchmsu or
churchwoman knows that the fiscal
years of Episcopal churches in this
diocese run from April LIST to April
lst. The Rsv. Davis Sessums came t.
Calvary Church April 1, 1883 For
the year ending April /, 1884, he was
paid $1,000. For the same time DR..
White was paid $2400. For the year
ending April l, 1885, Mr.. SEES: ums was
paid $500. For the same time DR..
White was paid s2l00. For the year
ending April /, 1886, Mr.. Sessums WAS
paid $500. For the same time DR..
White was paid $1,000 and subscrip-
ton raised for a summer trip for him
For the part of year to January, l,
1887, Mr.. Ssssums has been paid $3.50.
For the same time DIR. White has been
paid 5000. Total amount paid Mr..
Seesums in three years and nine
months, $6475. For the same time DR..
White has been paid the nice sum of
1890, or in three years and Line
months has been p lid 1925 more than
the active rector in IuIl charge. This
liberality to DIR. White has been the
cause OF much difference of opinion
on the part of friends of the church,
and has seriously initiated against its
progress, especially as it was
known, as the attic Q OF yester-
day stated, that he was not depend
ent on the SUN allowed him. Though
not seeking publicity, but simply
responding defensively to the Two
articles referred to, al analysis OF the
cause Of thess large payments from
the church's side (ready II desired)
will be found to Re fleet credit to the
hearts, but not to the heads, OF the
managers. But for the new life il fused
into the parish by the young rector
these payments would have been i'm
possible, and 10 his new field of labor
he can carry with him the consolation
and satisfaction of having been
directly and indirectly instrumental
in bis church having done more, far
more than its duty by its venerable
Rector Emeritus. vEsTRYMAN.

The Real Spirit of the South

Although ii is generally the accepted opin-
ion that the South wishes pence and harmony
with the North and its acts in favor of reun-
ion not only political but fraternal have been
understood As sincere, occasionally some one
who goes among the people OF the South con-
radicls these opinions and seeks to correct
these impressions. Another gentleman, Capt.
A. 5. Carpenter Of Illinois who has been in
Texas on railroad business, ia conversation IN
New York, remarked that the men who think
that there is no rebel spirit in the South do
not know anything about it. He said;

South for four or five wears. | thought il

Texas among the Southerners there TO con-

ACurious MeteOrite.

During the most violent portion ofthe storm
of Sunday, July II, about / O'Clock r. M,
something resembling meteorite struck the
sidewalk in Brooklyn, n. T., at Troy and
Fulton avenues. When first seen it was said

a mans head, but was broken into fragments

The substance is of bright vivid green
and porous When first procured 1t was soft
and plastic taking the impress OF the fingers.
After remsinins over day il became brittle
and friable. 1t resembles precisely in appear
ance the green deposit left on battery. At
frat it was thought that the lightning had
struck copper wire or roof, had melted por-
tions of il, and. oxidizing it, had carried 1t TO

reagents and the blowpipe unmistaksble evil

which twin metals are ALWAYS found in

and faint indications OF iron. From the
quantity of the material it is thought that
the ball when intact must have weighed 20
pounds. Portions have been sent to the
Smithsonian Institution.

Growth i'm Children.

The rate OF growth of children varies ac-
cording to sex Thus, at the age of eleven
and twelve years, boys are larger and heavier
than girls but from that age on the evolu
ton of the girls is more rapid. and they soon
overtake the boys and pass them. TIL the age
of fifteen years is reached when the boys
regain the sscendency. while the girls remain
nearly stationary. A curious relation has
been discovered between the growth of
children in stature and in weight. VI. Mall
ng-Hsnsen. director of the Deaf and Dumb
institution At Copenhagen. has for three years
weighed and measured his pupils daily; and
he has observed that their growth does not
take place regularly and progressively. but
BY stages separated by intervals of eQuilib
rum While the weight ls increasing, the
stature remains nearly stationary, and vice
versa. The maximum of increase of stature
correspond, with minimum period of aug
mentation of weight The vital forces sp
pear not to work on both sides NJ once. These
variations are subject to the influence of the
seasons. During Autumn and early winter,
accordingto NJ. Mailing Hansen, the child
cresses slowly: but during spring, stature
receives veritsble push. while weight in
cieases but little. Some local habits have
an influence on the stature Stendhal re-
marked that many Roman girls had deformed
sertebrsl columns, or were a little hump
backed, and found that il was the result of
popular belief prevailing in Rome that par
epts could promote the growth of their chill

How u Mosquito Bites

While some people think they are familiar
with the mosquito, they, in fact. know next
to nothing about it. The word mosquito is a
Spanish and Portuguese word, and is prob
ably the diminutlve of the Spanish nosca, Nv
The mosquito belongs to the order OF dlpterd
or two-winged flies, aud to the fanny of
eRiieidg. From the high degree of develop
ment Of its mouth parts 1t has been placed at
the head of the diptero. The principal
chsristeric is its long and slender proboscis,
nearly half as long as the insect, appearing
- single organ, but really composed of
several pieces peclisrly fitted for boring their
way into the flesh and drawing the blood
therefrom. There are q number of separate
and distinct species. They may come in
winter as well As in summer but their visits
then. happily, are rare. Though numerous
in individuals they are not numerous 10
species. There are l5S species, one quarter
of which are North American. The probes
els of the mosquito, when In its pormsl con-
dition, seems but a single piece, but upon
dissection is found to consist of seven dis
tinct pieces, one of which 10 double. The
operation Of inserting the proboscis into the
flesh is an interesting operation TO witness.
The mosquito besides furnishing food for the
fishes, serves to purify standing water and
lessen malarisl influences. They have an
organism so contracted that they are almost
without consciousness of pain, and could eat
themselves up, like the dragon fly. if their
bodies could be brought 10 contact with their
mouths.
